Lynne Stewart got off too easy

I am frequently asked "why didn't you blog about this blah, blah?" My response, especially when it's a liberal doing the asking is "go to blogger.com and start a blog, then you can write about whatever you want."

Of course, there are certain people I have to listen to, like those who gave me life and got me out of the Soviet Union and raised me and all that other stuff. My father insists I at least mention the travesty of justice that was the Lynne Stewart case.

Allah has the whole story but basically she committed treason by assisting her terrorist clients and passing along information between them. The prosecutors asked for 30 years. She got 28 months.

I usually tell them that if they are going to email me with a complaint about my opinion to email me at idont@giveacrap.com. LOL.

Two reasons why she got only 28 months.

1. A left-wing judge will never give a long sentence to a person who displays sufficient hatred for America.

2. Democrats do not take the war on terror seriously.

Unreal.

I just got your comment on my website and it couldn't have come at a better time.

After catching up on your site earlier today, I was left with an ugly feeling. I would say that 75% of your posts and correspondingly, the opinions you have on the topics, piss me off. Yet, you have one of those sites that always has something new and cutting edge and whether it makes me feel "ugly" or not, it's in my top five websites to check if I have a free minute. Sometimes I check 11 times a day. Yes, eleven, exactly.

However, I came over here to leave this ridiculously long comment (you just wait) and saw what you wrote about our dear traitor friend Lynne. While you say that you didn't even want to post about it, I thought...THE ONE TIME THAT SHE AND I ARE ON THE SAME PAGE POLITICALLY!

Now you're going to tell me that you think her sentence SHOULD go to appeal and she should walk free. I mean, if it wasn't that way, I'd never get so frustrated by your opinions. Maybe you don't feel that way and I would be happy that our democratic and republican hearts have agreed on something. But in either case, that bitch rots. heh.

What you wrote on my site today reminded me immediately of why I fell in lurve with you upon meeting. You're a die hard republican monster (in a good way!), but when I've hung out with you in person (can you believe it's only been 3 or 4 times??? Me either!), I can't get enough of your intelligence, sardonic wit, and pure confidence in who and what you represent as a person. You make me care about shit that I would otherwise never have the chance to care about.

Karol, thank you for calling me a beautiful person. But I think it's you who are really the beautiful one. I trust my Ari and when she chose you as one of her nearest and dearest, I HAD to support you. But the minute I sat on your gorgeous terrace and heard you speak, I saw exactly what she saw in you.

I need you to take care of our girl. And also, I need to spend some quality moments with you soon. We talk a great game, but it's time to make it happen. For reals. We'll even play a game of lame texas hold 'em if you want. (GASP! Did he just call poker LAME?!?!)

Pre-approve this comment or not. But ultimately, know where I stand in my love/hate/respectbeyondbelief relationship with you.

Yes, the AG should appeal the sentence on the grounds that the judge abused his discretion in sentencing her to a mere 28 months.

She should fry. Having said that, since spies and traitors like Larry Franklin, Ames and Pollard are still living, why should we make an exception for this one ?

Disgraceful decision. Where does it end? When will the far left come clean and just admit that they want this country obliterated? A ridiculous betrayal by a Clinton appointee. And this notion that her sentence be lenient because it supposedly resulted in no deaths...I think I'm just going to vomit with rage.

I think Ann Coulter said it best in her column today:

"The Democrats claim they want to treat terrorism as a criminal law problem, but when we give them an American citizen convicted of aiding terrorists – as happened this week – a Democrat judge gives her a slap on the wrist. Or he was going to give her a wrist slap until someone told him that wrist slapping was banned under the Geneva Conventions, so he let the wrist off with a warning."

I don't know if it's a Republican/Democrat thing so much as it's a class thing, class in this case being of the Chattering kind.

I can't help thinking if some secretary or mailroom guy had been caught doing what Stewart did (or what Sandy Berger did!) they'd be rotting in jail for the rest of their lives, regardless of political persuasions. But get mistaken for one of the elites and you can very nearly do whatever you want.

Of course, acceptance into the Chattering Classes is lubricated by conspicuously echoing the Conventional Liberal Wisdom, so the practical effect is that liberals seem to benefit disproportionately, but recent back-scratching and wagon-circling by the Republican Congressional leadership shows it to be a truly bi-partisan function of business as usual.
